    Just saying that we need XC services represented on the Fife Circle.

    Being Crosscountry voyagers, there's not many modern UK routes where these can't layer into so I support this!

    There is also an additional XC service from Dundee in the afternoon as well as two from Aberdeen, one at night and another which was the infamous 8:20 service from Aberdeen to Penzance. There are also 3 LNER services from Aberdeen and 3 from London Kings Cross which could be represented by either Voyagers, class 801s and could be later represented by class 800s once DTG or All Aboard Studios release a class 800. These Intercity may not be plentiful but are much needed to add to the rail scene.

    The LNER services actually already are represented on the 158 timetable, but they are AI only because the 801 that we have isn't built for diesel running (it's diesel engine is only for backup or emergency use) as I guess AI ignore physics or something.

    I forget which service I was running but I saw one come towards me over the forth bridge

    I never knew that good to know that they are at least represented as AI.

    Edit: I once used an 801 in free roam on Great Western Express and was able to get it up to a respectable 80 mph on diesel mode. This is not realistic as I was once stuck in Newcastle on a 801 due to overhead line failure and the staff told us that the max speed on diesel mode was around 60 mph which would result in a delayed arrival into Darlington. Technically the 801 could be made drivable on Fife Circle but it would not be realistic.
